The concircularity property of vector fields implies the geodesicity property, while the converse of this statement is not true. The main objective of this note is to find conditions under which the concircularity and geodesicity properties of vector fields are equivalent. Moreover, it is shown that the geodesicity property of vector fields is also useful in characterizing not only spheres, but also Euclidean spaces.

In this paper, we first find the properties of the generalized Tanaka–Webster connection in a contact Lorentzian manifold. Next, we find that a necessary and sufficient condition for the ∇ ^ -geodesic is a magnetic curve (for ∇) along slant curves. Finally, we prove that when c ≤ 0 , there does not exist a non-geodesic slant Frenet curve satisfying the ∇ ^ -Jacobi equations for the ∇ ^ -geodesic vector fields in M. Thus, we construct the explicit parametric equations of pseudo-Hermitian pseudo-helices in Lorentzian space forms M 1 3 ( H ^ ) for H ^ = 2 c > 0 .

The evolution of some geometric quantities on a compact Riemannian manifold [Formula: see text] whose metric is Yamabe soliton is discussed. Using these quantities, lower bound on the soliton constant is obtained. We discuss about commutator of soliton vector fields. Also, the condition of soliton vector field to be a geodesic vector field is obtained.

A unit geodesic vector field on a Riemannian manifold is a vector field whose integral curves are geodesics, or in other worlds have zero acceleration. A geodesic vector field on a Riemannian manifold is a smooth vector field with acceleration of each of its integral curves is proportional to velocity. In this paper, we show that the presence of a geodesic vector field on a Riemannian manifold influences its geometry. We find characterizations of n-spheres as well as Euclidean spaces using geodesic vector fields.
